In celebration of Energy Awareness Month, NYSEG and RG&E are highlighting a number of energy efficiency programs designed to lower energy costs and increase convenience for their customers.

The companies’ initiatives present solutions for homes and businesses, including the Clean Heat Rebate Program, which provides incentives for the installation of heat pumps. “Heat pumps are among the cleanest and most efficient heating options, reducing emissions while keeping homes more comfortable,” said Nicole Williams, manager of Conservation and Load Management at NYSEG and RG&E.

Customers can also take advantage of discounts on smart thermostats, air conditioning tools and air sealing, helping to lower utility bills. For business customers, the Commercial and Industrial Rebate Program provides incentives to upgrade to energy-efficient equipment that can lower operating costs and increase reliability.

In addition, NYSEG and RG&E offer free energy assessments for multifamily buildings with options for low-cost equipment upgrades. Companies aim to increase awareness of energy saving opportunities that benefit customer budgets and the environment.
